Simon Says Stamp Birch Tree Window

I am very late joining in with the very last ABC Christmas Challenge of 2017. This challenge is open until New Years Eve so you have loads of time to join in. 

The theme is 
'Y' for Yikes or 'Z' for Zoom

yikes, you still have several cards to make so you mass produce a few or you're zooming around last minute Christmas shopping! 

I used a fab new Simon's Exclusive Birch Tree Window Die . I think this is my fave die of the year and I know it will get lots of use! ❤️

I actually made 10 of these ;-)


It might be simple but I think these are among my fave cards for this year. For the background I splattered kraft card with black and green inks and when they were dry I sprayed liberally with gold, lovely and shimmery IRL. 


I used a Memory Box Small Quiet Deer Die for Rudolph, using a Red Wink Of Stella Pen for his glowing nose ;-) 


Thanks for looking!

I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for a fabulous 2017!

Challenges:
CRAFT    Christmas
Creative Knockouts   Winter Wonderland/Festive Fun
Crimbo Crackers   Animals

Hope you all have a great week :-)
Happy Crafting

Wild Rose Studio Baby Jesus


I made this card for a special friend and to join in with the Less Is More Challenge whose theme is One Layer + Outlines

I used a cute Wild Rose Studio Baby Jesus Clear Stamp and only added a little color with pencils to the baby. I added some glitter to the star and straw and gold embossed the sentiment. 


This must have been the quickest card to make EVER, but I think it is in keeping with the image, what do you think? 



Wishing you all a Merry Christmas :-)
